About the founder and chief faculty

Shraddha Prabhu Kumar

Shraddha has extensively learnt both spoken and written Mandarin, and has successfully qualified in the reputed international Chinese Proficiency Tests – HSK Level 3 and HSK Level 4 – conducted by the Confucius Institute (Hanban) in China. She received rigorous training from native Chinese teachers at the Chinese Language Centre, set up by Hanban, at the Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT).

She has also had the honour of being invited to be the only Indian judge at the All India Chinese Bridge Competition 2015 conducted by the Chinese Language Centre at VIT.

Shraddha holds a Masters degree in Mathematics from IIT-Bombay.

She has been teaching Mandarin over the past few years and has found the experience very enjoyable and fulfilling.

Teacher’s Speak

(Original text of a testimonial from Ms. Han Yu Wei, ex-faculty at the Chinese Language Centre, VIT. This was written during the period of Shraddha’s training there.)

Shraddha is a very good student of mine. Her love for the Chinese language and CLC’s good reputation has brought her to us to learn Chinese. Every weekend she travels 6 hours by train from Bangalore to Vellore and back to attend the HSK Level 4 classes at our centre. Later, during the week, she continues to study by herself at Bangalore.

She is intelligent and conscientious in her efforts and hence has progressed at an extraordinarily quick pace. When I see the detailed notes that she makes I realise how meticulous she is in her study of Chinese. No wonder that she scores almost full marks in all the practice test papers.

A good student is also a good teacher. Shraddha has taught me that personal excellence goes hand-in-hand with hard work and also that a woman who never gives up on her efforts is indeed most beautiful!

Faculty (Mandarin for Juniors)

Suhasini Murthy

One of YRCA’s earliest students, Suhasini Murthy’s journey into the Mandarin language commenced around October 2016 . After completing Level 1, she appeared for the HSK 1 exam and scored a perfect score of 200/200. She

continued learning higher levels, and went on to qualify, very creditably, in the HSK 2 and HSK 3 exams as well.

Suhasini is keenly interested in pursuing more advanced levels of Mandarin, as well as in teaching it to other interested learners. She believes that patience, perseverance and practice are the key factors in successfully mastering

Mandarin.

A masters degree holder in Psychology, Suhasini earlier worked as a Counselor in Mumbai.
